[PLUG] [Fwd: Backup Central / Help me decide what's in my next book?]


Background
I have and *really* like the "part 1" book _Backup & Recovery_ which focuses on backing up using non-commercial tools. For a few more details see my review here: http://www.pantug.org/forum/topic.asp?ARCHIVE=&TOPIC_ID=574.


The "part 2" book is to cover commercial tools with global Enterprise scalability (my interpretation). IMO he provides great, fair and balanced coverage of F/OSS tools and OS' in book one, and I have no reason to think that won't be true in book two.

My personal backup system uses some ideas from his first book, and I'd like to contribute to the second but I'm not an enterprise-level backup admin. But I suspect there are probably a few on this list...

This is an email from 'Backup Central'

I'm looking for volunteers to help review the work-in-progress outline for my upcoming book, Enterprise Backup & Beyond (or some title like that). I'm really struggling with what to put in this one, so I could use some opinions. I can't promise you much, but I can mention you (and the company you work for if you want) in the acknowledgments section of the book.

If you're interested in such things, just reply to this email and I'll tell you how you can help. You can look at as little or as much as you'd like.

Microsoft has single-handedly nullified Moore's Law.
Innate design flaws of Windows make a personal firewall, anti-virus
and anti-malware software mandatory. The resulting software arms race
has effectively flattened Moore's Law on hardware running Windows.
